Hero Quarter Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, big temp swing
A cool 41°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temps will climb significantly to 63°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.

Race Info
The Quarter Marathon covers 6.5 miles, a little more than a 10K, as an out and back on the Hero Half Marathon course in Fayetteville, Arkansas. It starts at The Upper Ramble in downtown Fayetteville and shares its first stretch with the half marathon, which opens on the Razorback Regional Greenway. Runners can take it on alone or as half of a two-person team that splits the half marathon distance.
